[cobalt-users] Pointers - RaQ 4r

["Nicholas Piecora" <NPiecora@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This is another question that I am sure has been asked, but not sure the
best way to do this.

I have some users that would like to have one primary website, lets say
x.com, and they also have the domain names y.com and z.com. The user would
like to have y and z.com point to x.com. The address bar in the browser
should still say z.com even when the data that it is pulling is from x.com.
I was told that the best way to do this is to create a virtual site for each
entry, then edit the httpd.conf file and change the path of the pointer web
sites to read from the directory of the main site. This works, but it really
does not seem like the best way to do things. Can't you do it with simple
DNS entries?

If anyone has any suggestions, please post them.

Thanks,
Nick
